A
powerful multifunctional antioxidant that helps to protect skin from damage
caused by environmental pollution.
A hero ingredient, it has a host benefits to both prevent and correct signs
of damage. Adding Vitamin C to your

such as pollution and sun exposure, which can lead to pigmentation,

gives skin it's plumpness and elasticity.

More about
Vitamin C...
Vitamin C is something that we would recommend to everyone for healthy
looking skin.
THE INKEY LIST Vitamin C has a high concentration at 30% and has been
formulated using Vitamin C in its pure form, L-ascorbic acid for a low
irritation, stable product. If you're new to Vitamin C, or have more
sensitive skin, we recommend mixing with other serums, such as Hyaluronic
Acid until your skin builds up tolerance.
Vitamin C can be used both in the AM and the PM, however for maximum
effects as an antioxidant we would suggest using in the AM as this is when
you will get the most of the product, and also in the PM if desired.
You should see the effects of Vitamin C fairly quickly, after around 14
days. Don't be tempted to overdo it
though. More is not necessarily more, and overuse will not increase the
effect.
Always wear sunscreen during the day. Vitamin C does not increase sun
sensitivity and can protect against free radicals, however it does not
provide sun protection and must be combined with a sunscreen.
When using with other products
AHAs (Glycolic, Lactic, Alpha Hydroxy)
Both are amazing ingredients that can help with healthy looking skin,
however it would be best to use Vitamin C in the AM and an AHA in the PM. The
acidic PH of both could lead to increased sensitivity and irritation if used
together at the same time.
Retinols
If using a retinol in the evening, stick to using Vitamin C in the AM.
